Great Stuff

vintage and handmade.

On the weekend I visited a few Chrismas bazzars and they were dissapointing. I look for anything vintage and new craft ideas.  They were soooo junky, and the crafts were from the last century. I would LOVE to attend something like this!

Christmas Legs

I thought these were very cute too. What a great idea, also at Peir One Imports. I love that store!

Mrs Claus Apron, a must have!

I just LOVE this apron , I saw it in Pier One Imports and knew that I must have one, and by must have one I mean must sew one.( I am a cheap bugger)
